Well, I'm going to be the one to say it. I wouldn't get him unless you provide a larger tank. I cannot imagine having our King boy in a 2 gallon, he wouldn't be happy. Currently he is in a 5 gallon.

He sounds gorgeous though! He would probably be fine in a 2 gallon, for now, because he is used to being squished in a cup and isn't feeling well. If you can upgrade the size later, then I think you should get him.

I picked him up xD And yes, I will definitely get him bigger accomodations as I can afford it :) I'm really happy with him though. He's happy even in the pet keeper I put him in until I could get his home up and running tomorrow :)

I'll take pictures in just a little bit! He's already becoming a darker black than at the store :)
